Artwork Description

Mixed Media on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.

Signed certificate of authenticity.

This strong and boldly coloured artworks pays tribute to Biraban through colour and design. A strong and bold Aboriginal leader and a member of the Awabakal tribe, Biraban or 'Eagle Hawk' was a leader amongst the Awabakal people and lived up to this responsibilities by maintaining good relations between Aboriginal people and settlers. His story is depicted within this work through a backdrop of separated structured square spaces in red, black and white (representing the very different and divided cultures of the settlers and Aboriginal people). We then see a black interwoven pathways that move smoothly across the canvas, reflecting Biraban’s ability to move easily between these two diverse cultures. Biraban was a man who greatly assisted in the building of respectful relationships between his community and settlers. He is well known and regarded for his wonderful assistance to Reverend Thelkeld in recording the Awabakal language and local stories which is available to us today.

I enjoy providing an opportunity to communicate with you personally on artworks of interests and their significance and story. My hope and vision for my online Gallery is to connect with each prospective buyer, allowing for interchange and sharing around your individual art needs, as would occur in a gallery or exhibition. It is an honor to have my artwork integrated into your living or work space and I am available to you to ensure the acquisitions of my works is a gratifying and pleasurable experience.
